ASTM A1008/A1008M HSLAS-F GRADE 50 (340) HSLAS-F Grade 50 — Cold Rolled Steel

ASTM A1008/A1008M HSLAS-F GRADE 50 (340) is a hslas-f grade 50 grade cold rolled steel conforming to the astm standards. At 340 MPa minimum yield strength, this is medium-strength structural steel for longitudinal rails, shotgun members, and frame reinforcement channels.

As a Improved Formability HSLA steel, ASTM A1008/A1008M HSLAS-F GRADE 50 (340) offers a specific combination of strength and formability engineered for advanced automotive manufacturing. The improved-formability HSLAS-F designation delivers higher elongation and better r-values than standard HSLA grades at equivalent strength levels.

Ameristeel maintains inventory of ASTM A1008/A1008M HSLAS-F GRADE 50 (340) in various gauges and widths, available as coils, sheets, or custom blanks. Our ISO 9001:2015 certified processes ensure consistent quality from prototype through production volumes.

Available coating options for ASTM A1008/A1008M HSLAS-F GRADE 50 (340) include Galvanized, Galvanneal, Electrogalvanized, providing corrosion protection and surface preparation suited to your manufacturing process requirements.

ASTM A1008/A1008M HSLAS-F GRADE 50 (340) at 340 MPa yield compares to ASTM A653/A653M HSLAS 340 (0 MPa lower yield at 340 MPa) and ASTM A653/A653M HSLAS-F 340 (0 MPa lower yield at 340 MPa). Selecting the right grade depends on the balance between strength requirements and forming complexity for your specific stamping application.
